We are revisiting his first appearance on the show after some words from Alison at the top. Original description: Bald Bryan Bishop, Alison's cohost on The Adam Carolla Show stopped by this episode of Alison Rosen Is Your New Best Friend to chat about petty grievances that are ultimately motivating, not wanting to be That Guy, the team of That Guys that are in his head, whether he and Alison should strive to be podcast ambassadors, passing Dr. Drew a demo tape of what would become The Film Vault, working at KROQ as a phone screener, whether you can be mad at people for their natural reactions to things, awful radio jingles, Adam Carolla being twenty percent more Adam on air and living with a brain tumor. (original air date: July 8, 2012)

They sent me to New Hampshire to attend the Inside Out Soul Festival. The photographer assigned to the story was a young woman named Elizabeth Lippman. Along with her photography assistant, we drove from NYC to Loon Mountain in New Hampshire for a very intense few days where we interviewed a ton of young attendees along with a ton of music acts including a young Katy Perry who at that time performed as Katy Hudson. Elizabeth and I lost touch but I'd see her name from time to time—she went on to shoot a regular column for the New York Times. A few years ago we reconnected. She was now living in LA. I demanded she come on the show so we could properly catch up! We discussed press plates, her experience photographing Trump and other celebrities, being an early Atkins adopter, the Nicki Hilton kerfuffle, growing up the daughter of journalist parents (she was born in Cairo), moving to LA, the difference between directing and photography, learning she was BRCA positive, parenthood, being a reluctant stage mom and so much more. Plus we did a round of JMOE, HGFY and our new words segment.

Comedian and writer April Richardson was last on the show in 2016. Since then she fell in love, got married and moved to England. But things with her new husband quickly changed. For a long time time she was absent on social media—to the point her followers were direct messaging her to see if she was okay—but recently she surfaced to announce she'd left an abusive marriage. I reached out to ask if she'd be willing to tell the story on my show and she said yes.

Writer, mother and host of Wife of the Party, LeeAnn Kreischer has always struck me as very wise and self-actualized. Turns out she really is! We talk about her incredibly challenging childhood, her desire to be happy, growing up with a borderline mother, meeting her husband Bert Kreischer, a little something called "Bert Mode," the effect of Bert's success on her marriage, realizing she preferred writing to acting, recurring fights, her years in New York, postpartum depression and rage and so much more.

On the fourth episode of Alison Rosen Is Your New Best Friend, actress, comedian, member of funny musical duo Garfunkel and Oates and fellow podcast host Riki Lindhome joins the show to talk about relationships, Valentine's Day, the Nuvaring, the way you have to do fun stuff like go on trips and eat at nice restaurants even if you're single, workaholism, setting boundaries, therapy, whether relationships make you less productive and the way Kinko's doesn't suck, which is nuts since everyone knows Kinko's sucks. In fact as I sit here writing this I'm still baffled at the way an otherwise intelligent woman such as Riki Lindhome can insist Kinko's is a pleasant place to go when it's pretty much the opposite of a pleasant place to go. Have I mentioned I hate Kinko's? God, I hate it. But Riki doesn't. (original airdate: March 4, 2012)

After a sad announcement at the top and an update on a wee Tik Tok beef I've found myself in, we revisit this wonderful episode which originally ran in Feb, 2023.

Cole Imperi is a thanatologist which means she studies death, dying, loss and grief. Friend of the show and frequent guest Alie Ward recommended her some time ago when I was looking to talk to someone about loss in 2020.

And she made the butter herself while hanging out with Alie Ward earlier in the day! On this episode we discussed pepperoni rolls, Kentucky, her relationship with religion, feeling drawn to study death and dying, interning at a crematorium, what people get wrong about grief, funeral directors, misconceptions about people in the deathcare industry, whether the industry is predatory, why living forever isn't what we should want, infertility, shadowloss (a term she coined), roller derby, cicadas, thanabotany, pickle ball, making daisy chains, Ruby and so much more. We also took your questions and did a round of Just Me Or Everyone wherein I revealed some things I've never revealed on the show.

After a sad announcement at the top and an update on a wee Tik Tok beef I've found myself in, we revisit this wonderful episode which originally ran in Feb, 2023.

Cole Imperi is a thanatologist which means she studies death, dying, loss and grief. Friend of the show and frequent guest Alie Ward recommended her some time ago when I was looking to talk to someone about loss in 2020. We finally made it happen—in person, no less—since Cole now lives in Los Angeles. Also, she brought bread and butter! And she made the butter herself while hanging out with Alie Ward earlier in the day! On this episode we discussed pepperoni rolls, Kentucky, her relationship with religion, feeling drawn to study death and dying, interning at a crematorium, what people get wrong about grief, funeral directors, misconceptions about people in the deathcare industry, whether the industry is predatory, why living forever isn't what we should want, infertility, shadowloss (a term she coined), roller derby, cicadas, thanabotany, pickle ball, making daisy chains, Ruby and so much more.

Is there a paper cup big enough to contain this whole show with Jackie Johnson, Lizzy Cooperman and Jeff Fox who is filling in for Tony Thaxton? Lizzy had a mishap at the gas station but it may have given her a million dollar idea. Jackie did cardio to prepare the Blink 182 concert but the experience has caused a sea change! We're learning about bands that are somewhere on the prog-jam spectrum and I need to find out what exactly Jackie and Lizzy mean about being conditioned to wear a certain kind of underwear. Plus problematic Smurfs, bra sizing, and Macbeth!

RJ City—professional wrestler, former Nickelodeon star, and host of AEW's Hey!

We discuss the harrowing social situation he found himself in before his last appearance, the Sex Thing Thing, Ben Stein, Bebe Neuwirth, calling things by their brand name and a bone I need to pick, words and meanings, punctuality, communication and more.

We reminisce about the frat house we accidentally stayed at in Palm Desert that Greg Heller had also once rented for his bachelor party and then I foist upon Daniel the dinosaur album I remember from grade school. I also share some stories about the funniest but meanest girl I was friends with in college and I want to know what kind of guy Daniel thinks I would cheat with, if I were to cheat. I let him know the kind of gal I'd be worried about. Plus your calls, shows that are irritating but watchable versus just irritating, Jenny Holzer and more.

RJ has a sex question for everyone and it isn't even about the mortifying thing he said to a gal pal at a hotel. That comment was also about sex and Robin and I are still dying a little inside. Did that sentence make sense? Does it make sense that Dalton would occasionally sleep "like a pencil" back in his dating days? And I have a bone to pick with the guys about a little something that happened at the wrestling event I attended the night before. Plus Susan Lucci, RJ's leather pants, RJ's new 'do, Dalton's barfing in my bathroom, sleep bras, platonic naps, Robin's love of logistics, Tony's surveillance photos of me, compliments that move the needle, my famous neighbor and so much more. And a chaotic Owen cameo!

Friend of the show and frequent guest Alie Ward recommended her some time ago when I was looking to talk to someone about loss in 2020. We finally made it happen—in person, no less—since Cole now lives in Los Angeles. Also, she brought bread and butter! And she made the butter herself while hanging out with Alie Ward earlier in the day! On this episode we discussed pepperoni rolls, Kentucky, her relationship with religion, feeling drawn to study death and dying, interning at a crematorium, what people get wrong about grief, funeral directors, misconceptions about people in the deathcare industry, whether the industry is predatory, why living forever isn't what we should want, infertility, shadowloss (a term she coined), roller derby, cicadas, thanabotany, pickle ball, making daisy chains, Ruby and so much more. We also took your questions and did a round of Just Me Or Everyone wherein I revealed some things I've never revealed on the show.

He gives me an inordinate amount of sh*t for the previous night's debacle, maligns otters, tries to drive a wedge between Tony and me, and refuses to accept that I "get" wrestling now. We also talk about aliases, arachnophobia, attending a "happening" drama school, Kaye Ballard, sex, threesomes, protein bars, Don Knotts, and more. Plus the return of How Dare You and audience questions.

This is a gross simplification of an elegant and complex interpersonal dynamic but you get the gist.

]]> Comedian Lizzy Cooperman joins me IN PERSON to talk about hosting a podcast, Lizzy Cooperman's In Your Hands where she allows listeners to vote on which action she will take next. We get to the bottom of why she's so willing to let other people make decisions for her, our shared issues with organization, retainers and orthodontics in general, peacocks, poetry, climates, her path to comedy, TV writing, relationships, The Artist's Way, her bold assertion that I seem like someone who doesn't meditate which I feel I did not press her on enough, a truly harrowing story of suffering a stroke and so much more. Plus huffing!

Anyway, the camping truthers have come for me because I dare referred to the trip I took to the heart of darkness (a campground and RV park with a number of preschoolers) as camping. IT WAS CAMPING TO ME! Also Daniel and I made plans to hire a private investigator to get to the bottom of a couple who were very nearly publicly porking at Fleming's in Pasadena but then it turned out there was nothing to investigate which was quite a let down. John wore a kilt at the Renn Faire and Jonah was among the goths. Tony cried a lot at Paul McCartney. Plus a Heathers quiz!

(Questions for God, Lyft Driver menu, Snoopworthy) Mon, 25 Apr 2022 03:00:00 +0000 Ok so this week I am introducing you all to my newest show, one I know you've heard me talking quite a bit about, Upworthy Weekly. This is a pretty high stakes introduction, sort of like introducing your new beau to your old best friend. When I introduced Daniel (new beau, now husband) to Trevor (old best friend) way back when, it went swimmingly. In fact, Trevor officiated at our wedding. But what it it had been disastrous? I guess what I'm saying is if you all play your cards right, you could officiate at my wedding to Upworthy Weekly? Wait, that makes no sense. Also, it's common knowledge at magazines and newspapers that you aren't supposed to use the same word repeatedly which is why you'll hear film, flick, feature, movie, etc in one story. However this isn't a magazine, it's an episode summary, so I will use the word introduce so many times it loses meaning and you will thank me!

Anyway, about this episode!

This week's show touches on everything from religion to psychology to criminology. Alison and Tod open with an appeal to have a legendary rapper co-host the show. They move on to discuss a clever Lyft driver's ride menu, a guy who was raised to be the perfect husband, and questions we'd ask God.

Plus, Tod's caffeine addiction is leading him astray and Alison shares marriage advice.

]]> Ok so this week I am introducing you all to my newest show, one I know you've heard me talking quite a bit about, Upworthy Weekly. This is a pretty high stakes introduction, sort of like introducing your new beau to your old best friend. When I introduced Daniel (new beau, now husband) to Trevor (old best friend) way back when, it went swimmingly. In fact, Trevor officiated at our wedding. But what it it had been disastrous? I guess what I'm saying is if you all play your cards right, you could officiate at my wedding to Upworthy Weekly? Wait, that makes no sense. Also, it's common knowledge at magazines and newspapers that you aren't supposed to use the same word repeatedly which is why you'll hear film, flick, feature, movie, etc in one story. However this isn't a magazine, it's an episode summary, so I will use the word introduce so many times it loses meaning and you will thank me!

Anyway, about this episode!

Honestly, it was the perfect segue into the 41 minute trivia question that Daniel presented me with in Hawaii which involved soup and which he recapitulated on the show but in a mercifully shortened form. Play along at home! Plus a giant misunderstanding involving human sacrifice and jogging, my koala, country music, ghosts, kids, first class, Freaks & Geeks and more!

His latest book, Passing on the Right is written from the point of Skippy "Batty" Battison, a fictional right wing comedian, podcaster and satellite radio shock-jock whose takes are too hot for the mainstream, or so he believes, and who is so familiar I was sure he was based on an actual person (Sacks swears he is not). The book, like all of Sacks work, is hilarious. We talked about how his OCD helps him write, his daily routine, whether he has a chip on his shoulder, early aspirations, his unlikely path to interviewing, assholes in comedy, Alex Jones, confident morons, spices with no business in food and so much more. We also did a round of Just Me Or Everyone and HGFY.

Jenna has some Butterfinger thoughts and I need advice. Greg's kid is barfing which reminds me of the time I came down with hand, foot and mouth in high school after visiting a contaminated beach. And Daniel roasts me with a truly creative shower joke. Plus so much more including Just Me Or Everyone, Real Housewives of Salt Lake City, the Burbank Witch and more.

Producer and writer Greg Heller returns to tell me about the podcast he claims is going to crush mine. He's been saying this for months now and sending me gifs of cans getting crushed. It's called Close to Death and debuts Oct 27. Greg hosts the first and last episodes of the six episode series, each of which explores an aspect of death. We talk about writing his own obituary with the help of a famed obit writer who didn't exactly love Greg, staging his own funeral with a death doula, parenthood, losing his dongle, hacky jokes, tentacle pr0n, finding a dead body on the beach when he was a kid, lobsters, things that annoy him, cooking, feeling desensitized to death, show running and so much more. We also took your questions and did a round of Hey Go Fuck Yourself.

The whole episode isn't about chairs though. It's also about tik tok, Jackie's cool new wearable tech ring, insomnia, Squid Game, Theta waves, happy endings at massage parlors and more! We also did a round of Just Me Or Everyone!

Chef Jeff is here with a JMOE that has the potential to make Sara rock back and forth. And a story about a fiddler crab! And we do our new segment: Do You Remember This Dude?

Emily Oster is an economics professor and author whose hugely popular books—Expecting Better, Cribsheet, and her latest, The Family Firm—help parents make better decisions by analyzing data. Expecting Better was recommended to me by friend of show Mary Katharine Ham when I was pregnant with Elliot and I've been a fan ever since. She's written numerous pieces during the pandemic about analyzing risk. Also, she holds a PhD from Harvard! We talked about what she loves about research, growing up the daughter of two Yale professors, the sausage roll disaster of 2020, whether she always wanted children, knowing she was done after two, her relationship with decisions, living in Rhode Island and why I should move there, hiking, being a morning person, what she was like in college, why you're probably wrong about economics (I was), her newsletter, her favorite class in school and so much more.

Does Dave Dameshek get paid to agree with Daniel instead of Alison? You would be forgiven for thinking so after this episode. Also, his wife won't add to his pint glass collection and he has questions. Meanwhile Alison and Daniel got in a fight over a flyswatter and more. Also, Alison made an egregious error in a meeting earlier and is embarrassed. Betsy Sodaro is here and she's not a fruit head. Also, she explains why she's the last person in the world who should have a child. Plus a new segment which might be called Which is Worse? and Just Me Or Everyone!

Matt Logelin and his wife Liz were high school sweethearts. They bought a house, she got pregnant with their first child and they planned to live happily ever after. The pregnancy was complicated but their daughter was born and she was healthy. But then 27 hours after giving birth, as she was getting ready to meet the baby she hadn't yet held, Liz died of a pulmonary embolism. This is the subject of Matt's memoir, Two Kisses for Maddy, which has been turned into Fatherhood, the number one Netflix movie at the time this episode airs. Kevin Hart plays Matt. Obama has tweeted about the movie. (His production company helped bring it to the screen.) Matt stopped by the show to talk about the differences between the movie and real life, his mixed feelings about writing the book, the process of turning the book into a movie, grief, the Liz Logelin Foundation, falling in love again (he is married to Bob's Burgers writer, Great North co-creator and ARIYNBF guest Lizzie Molyneux), whether Tony seems violent, the odd life of a successful blogger, guesting on Oprah and Rachael Ray and so much more.

Mary Katharine Ham—author and political commentator (currently with CNN, formerly with Fox News)—points out on this episode that she usually comes on my show during big life transitions. This time is no exception. The last time she was on she had just gotten engaged and now she's pregnant. As with her previous two pregnancies, she has hyperemesis gravidarum and is VERY sick. We discuss all the barfing, insects, pregnancy dreams about her late husband Jake Brewer, her crazy morning, how she's feeling about having an infant again, how her daughters are feeling about getting a sibling, her new pup, baby names, learning to do her own makeup for her wedding, writing, catching her hand in her garbage disposal, her favorite Southern foods and so much more. We also answered your questions, and did a round of HGFY and Just Me Or Everyone. Full video at youtube.com/alisonrosen.

Plus an update about Daniel's hair, iTunes Comments of the Week, an email in defense of thongs (what????!?!?!) and Just Me Or Everyone!

This episode was supposed to include Daniel AND an installment of Daniel's Kewl Beanz but things went sideways so instead you're just getting me and my cranky mood plus some wonderfully honest listener calls. It's a high pressure situation! I am still ruminating over this nanny situation and also I think I had a breakthrough regarding the recurring dream discussed last week. Daniel and I are both overly affected by the moods of everyone around us and I'm still processing this year. I bet you are too. I take a look back at the craziness that was 2020 and give a little glimpse of some guests coming up in 2021. Thank you all for being a bright spot this year!

Arden Myrin is comic, actor and writer. You know her as Regina Sinclair on Netflix's Insatiable. She's also appeared on shows like Orange is the New Black, Shameless, Chelsea Lately, Inside Amy Schumer, Gray's Anatomy, Friends, RuPaul's Drag Race among others. She hosts the I Heart Radio Bachelor podcast Will You Accept this Rose? and now her first book, Little Miss Little Compton, is coming out September 29 (but it's available for pre-order now). Arden and I talked about the process of writing the book, how it morphed from a breezy beach read to something a little more serious (but still very funny!), grief, Bermuda bags, reality TV, acting, tricky parents, learning to speak up for yourself when you feel ready, relationships, checking her motives and so much more.

Sarah Ellis suffered a spinal cord injury at the beginning of the year and has been re-learning how to walk in the months since. But her story gets crazier than that. After emergency surgery to preserve mobility and a number of days in the hospital she was transferred to a rehab facility where the nurses noticed she seemed short of breath. An ultrasound revealed 15 blood clots in her legs and lungs—a rare side effect from the common blood thinner she'd been put on. She nearly died. After another emergency surgery to remove the clots she spent more time in the hospital and then it was back to the live-in rehab facility. I've been following her journey on social media and wondered how she manages to maintain such a seemingly positive attitude. We talked about all this, her experiences as an Apple Genius, IVF, dogs, musical theater and more.

Jackie Johnson and Ken Reid are here to make fish puns and help me get to the bottom of an uncomfortable moment that happened during Daniel and my anniversary dinner. Plus we remember some great TV theme songs and Jackie tries to get Tony to sing but Tony refuses to perform. Is this a fireable offense? We do iTunes Comment of the Week and Just Me Or Everyone and bring back HGFY but with a twist! Also some strawberry shortcake and psycho uncles talk.

When she was 14, Adrienne Brodeur was awakened in the middle of the night by her beloved mother who confessed that a family friend had just kissed her. She wanted to pursue a romance with this man and needed young Adrienne's help in keeping it a secret. Adrienne felt special and important—her mother had chosen her to be her confidante. Thus began a years long situation that affected every aspect of Adrienne's life and which she recounts and untangles in Wild Game: My Mother, Her Lover, and Me. We also talk about Aspen Words, parenting, memoir versus reality, Swatches, myths, cooking, dementia, career paths, creating Zoetrope with Francis Ford Coppola and so much more.

Four years ago political pundit Mary Katharine Ham's personal tragedy was all over the news when her husband Jake Brewer died suddenly in a cycling accident. Theirs had been a picture perfect romance that read like a movie—he was former Obama staffer, she was a conservative columnist and pundit appearing regularly on Fox News (she's now employed by CNN). They had one daughter and she was seven months pregnant with their second daughter at the time of the accident. As Mary Katharine recounts here, she figured she'd probably not date again, at least not for awhile. And then a couple years later she found herself opening her heart again to a mysterious man who has no social media presence but actually exists (I met him myself). We recorded this episode the night following her surprise engagement. We also talk about masculinity, sexual harassment, hoarding, anxiety, the LadyBrains podcast, being a decisive person and so much more.

Turns out Santa Fe suits her in such an overpowering way that in the course of writing this summary I've sold my home and now I live in Santa Fe. Also she took advice from a witch.

Plus a round of iTunes Comments of the Week and there's a song we should have played but we didn't and it was kind of egregious on our part and I even gave it to Tony ahead of time and then just completely forgot. #fruit

Rachael O'Brien, Renee Colvert and Tony Thaxton join Daniel and me to discuss how we each responded to the pair of earthquakes over July 4 weekend. Did you know Daniel took a class in college about earthquakes? He did and despite my wanting to roll my eyes at Johnny Earthquakes, he has pretty good info to share. We also discuss reality shows, the way The Hills: New Beginnings is scrambling my brain even though I love it, Rachael's experience at Jax and Britney's Kentucky wedding, how "real" the shows really are, pancake bread, Just Me Or Everyone, gal chat and so much more.

Plus the proper way to use a spoon, the days it's okay to let loose and so much more including more of your racy, anonymous Just Me Or Everyones.

She's a go-to comedy choreographer but she's also worked with Carly Rae Jepsen and Pharrell. She's the first choreographer I've had on the show and I was fascinated to learn how it all works and also that there's no union that represents TV and film choreographers. We also talked about her path, UCB, nursing, body image, her family, serendipity and so much more. Plus we took questions from listeners and did a round of Just Me Or Everyone.

We talked about the writing process, how Erin became a font of info, the book she originally set out to write, her DIY divorce from her first husband, being aware of inequality from a young age, how she and her Throwing Shade cohost Bryan Safi met, dealing with haters, Susan Faludi's Backlash and Gail Collins's America's Women, dating older men but marrying a younger man, being the guardians of her husband's brother who has Down's Syndrome, cosmetic companies owned by women, getting kicked out of Olive Garden, her experience of the Throwing Shade TV show and so much more. We also took your questions and did a round of Just Me Or Everyone.

Jeff's Homemade Cheez-Its recipe:

8 ounces extra sharp cheddar cheese, shredded

1/4 cup unsalted butter, at room temperature

1 tsp kosher salt

1 cup all-purpose flour

1/2 tsp mustard powder

1 tsp garlic powder

2 to 3 tbsp ice water

In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment or a bread machine on dough setting, mix the cheese, butter, and salt on low speed until combined.

Combine the flour, mustard and garlic powder. Add to the mix on low until pebbly.

Slowly add 2 tablespoons of cold water and mix as the dough forms a ball. If needed, add the additional tablespoon of water a little at a time until the dough forms.

Pat the dough into a disk, wrap with plastic wrap, and refrigerate for 1 hour.

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.

Divide the dough into two pieces and roll each into a very thin 10×12-inch rectangle (the dough should be no more than ⅛-inch high).

Using a fluted pastry wheel or a pizza cutter, cut the rectangles into 1-inch squares, then transfer them to the baking sheets.

Bake for 15 to 17 minutes, or until puffed and browning at the edges.

Immediately move the crackers to wire racks to cool completely, then store in an airtight container for up to 1 week.

Hope you enjoy this replay of my Tiffany Haddish episode with a brand new beginning. Come see me at Sketch Fest!  And buy Tiffany's book!

I first met comedian and actress Tiffany Haddish (Keanu, The Carmichael Show) when we both appeared on a radio show and ever since then I've hoped to have her on ARIYNBF. I'd heard bits and pieces of her story and got the sense she'd had a rough upbringing but I wasn't quite prepared for the intensity of what she'd experienced. Abusive parents, foster care, living in her car, an abusive first husband, care taking from the age of 8, and even as I write this I feel as if I'm not conveying the particulars that make her story so powerful. And yet throughout, she's joking and positive. In addition, we talked about the importance of trusting your first mind, when she was misquoted by TMZ, auditioning for SNL, the help she received from Kevin Hart, arguing with Dane Cook, Six Flags abortions, eating rat meat, peach jello, audition makeup and so much more. We also did a round of Just Me Or Everyone.

We also talked about the genesis of his podcast, his thoughts about gun control and the NRA, Al Anon and the two memories that bookend his marriage. I say "rare, honest and unflinching" because I am under the impression Dana doesn't normally pull the curtain back this far. If he does, I DON'T WANT TO KNOW.  I'm pretty convinced this is an exclusive and also a hot scoop. You know, the kind of thing that would have made me yell "podcast boner!" if I weren't so calm and collected. Anyway, I love Dana and think he's one of the best comics around and loved this chance to get to know him a little better, cold hunk of peanut butter and all. We also took your questions over Twitter and did a round of Just Me Or Everyone.

And now here I am, non-organically shoving the info into the show title. Except what are my options, I ask you? "Happy Thanksgiving from Someone's Nose Whistle?" "Happy Thanksgiving from a Mysterious Nose Whistle?" Actually, both of those would have worked but as the woman who did my makeup at my wedding said to me when she put the wrong shade of lipstick on me and I pointed it out, "That ship has sailed, sister!" (I AM TOTALLY OVER IT AND I DEFINITELY DON'T BRING UP MY BURNT SIENNA LIPS WHENEVER I TALK ABOUT MY WEDDING.) Anyway, on this special Thanksgiving episode which was recorded before Jenna had her baby, we talk about all the things we're thankful for as well as toxic pans, Twilight Zone and even more egg talk.

It was fascinating to find out how he regards his own success and how the Netflix series, he says, "changed the narrative." Also he recently made a film called Hello My Name is Doris starring Sally Field and Max Greenfield and it was heartbreaking and beautiful.
